Question

Find six tenths of 80cm

Answer 1

you could change 6 tenths to a percentage, multiply 6 tenths by 100 over 1 and you get 60%, and the you get 60% of 80, put 80 over 100 and multiply it by 60 and you get 48cm

Answer 2

The best thing to do here is to find 1/10th then multiply.
To do this, divide your number (80) by 10
80/10= 8
As you're looking for sixth tenths, you need to multiply this by 6
8*6= 48
Therefore, six tenths of 80cm is 48cm
Hope this helps :)
